Santhosh Srinivasan commented on HADOOP-5201:
---------------------------------------------

Yes, that is exactly what I do. Most of them get thrown. You can look at the 
source at the following location. In particular look at the method 
getExceptionFromString

http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/hadoop/pig/trunk/src/org/apache/pig/backend/hadoop/executionengine/mapReduceLayer/Launcher.java?view=log

> getDiagnostics in TaskReport should return exceptions

> Currently, getDiagnostics() returns Strings. When exceptions are thrown in 
> user code and/or Hadoop, it would be cleaner to propagate the exception back 
> to the application for better error handling. Hadoop should return the 
> exceptions instead of returning string representations that correspond to 
> printStackTrace() output.
